Google Offers app now on Android; we go hands on!
Google has released an official app for Google Offers, their location-based deal service. With the app, you can view, purchase and redeem deals right from your Android device.
When you open the app, you'll be shown the Featured deals of the day that are nearest to you, which is based on your GPS data. You can also slide to the right to access any offers you have purchased in the past. If you want to subscribe to other offers in other cities, simply go into the settings -> subscriptions and then select the area you wish to subscribe to.
There is a shortcut in the top right of the app to a barcode scanner in case you see a QR code that you wish to scan.
The biggest drawback is that while it's expanded to a slew of new cities, it's still fairly limited. To find out if you're city is included, visit the official Google Offers website.
Google Offers is available for free in the Android Market. We've got download links and our video walkthrough after the break.
